Things To Do
no. 246
No. 246 is one of our favorite restaurants. They do classic Italian dishes and have a wonderful brunch.
Poco Loco Neighborhood Provisions
Looking for a quick, satisfying breakfast? Poco Loco does some of the best breakfast burritos around and other breakfast treats like cinnamon rolls and a breakfast chimichanga. Poco Loco is located just 5 minutes from the wedding venue if you are staying nearby.
Le Petit Marche
Wonderful breakfast items including some of the best breakfast sandwiches. They take reservations which is always a win for breakfast or brunch in this city!
Atlanta Botanical Garden
Atlanta is in full bloom in March as we are blessed with an early spring. The Atlanta Botanical Gardens is a great place to enjoy special exhibits and the amazing flowers that bloom in the region.
The Iberian Pig
Spanish tapas restaurant where we celebrated our engagement. All of the tapas and the paella are delicious.
Butter & Cream
Our favorite, small batch ice cream store. Try and save room at some of our favorite Decatur restaurants and grab a seasonal flavor.
Georgia Aquarium
If you have never been to Atlanta, a trip to the Georgia Aquarium is a must. It is the largest aquarium in the United States (and was the largest in the world when it opened in 2005!). The aquarium is accessible via public transportation, MARTA, and a great option for visiting without a car.
BeetleCat
Great location with wonderful patio. BeetleCat is known for fantastic seafood but their doughnut brunch served every weekend is what has us going back.
Zoo Atlanta
We have enjoyed many special events at Zoo Atlanta like Brew at the Zoo and Sippin' Safari but going during the day is such a great time!
Bomb Biscuit Atlanta
Right along the Beltline, less than 2 miles from either hotel block, Bomb Biscuit is one of the tastiest breakfast spots in the city. Make sure to make a reservation in advance to enjoy specials like bonuts (biscuit doughnuts) and lemon pepper chicken biscuits (a true Atlanta original).
Ponce City Market
Ponce City Market is on every Atlanta tourism list for good reason. It has tons of shops, bars, and restaurants and is along the Atlanta Beltline. Be prepared for tons of people if going on a weekend but the stop is definitely worth it. A short trip from either hotel block, PCM is worth a stop.
Atlanta Beltline
The Atlanta Beltline is a 22 mile loop around the city connecting 45 different neighborhoods. The Beltline is a great way to explore some of Atlanta's great attractions and food including Ponce City Market, Krog Street Market, Piedmont Park, and the Atlanta Botanical Gardens.
Krog Street Market
Another food hall along the Atlanta Beltline, Krog Street Market has some truly wonderful independent restaurants. We recommend starting at Pour Taproom, a self-serve beer hall, and then trying Gu's Dumplings, Yalla, Fred's, or Superica for dinner.
The S.O.S. Tiki Bar
We always love when we have a chance to go here. SOS is a great spot for a fun tiki drink and a rotating menu of pop up restaurants. There can be a bit of a wait on weekends so plan accordingly!
